Here Without You
A hundred days have made me older
since the last time that I saw your pretty face
a thousand lies have made me colder
and I don't think I can look at this the same
but all the miles that separate
disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
Severus stood up abruptly, an imprint in his leather chair began to disappear. He couldn't think thoughts like this anymore. Hermione was gone, and it was his bloody fault, so he might as well get over it.
It wasn't like he didn't love her. Quite the opposite. He did. He still craved for the feel of her skin against his, the smell of her hair, her soft words in his ears. He shuddered at the thought. She was perfect.
I'm here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
but you're with me in my dreams
and tonight girl it's only you and me
He still regretted it. And he knew he couldn't do anything. He made her leave. It was a war, he was her teacher, she was still 17. It wasn't right.
But now the war was over, and he was lonely. He couldn't was for forgiveness, for he didn't deserve it, he knew.
He had been a Death Eater, and in a war,
but this was harder than it all. He couldn't put himself past it.
The miles just keep rollin'
as the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life was overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go
Severus poured himself more brandy and
sat back down. He wondered about what she was thinking about right now.
'Probably Weasley or Potter.' He thought. She was too good for him.
I'm here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
and tonight girl it's only you and me
He ran his hands through his hair and held his head in his hands. He still couldn't take the heartbreak.
Everything I know, and anywhere I go
it gets hard but it wont take away my love
and when the last one falls
when it's all said and done
it gets hard but it wont take away my love
He got up slowly and made his way over. 'What do you want, Albus?' he said before he opened it. There was no need to ask who it was. Only Albus came to talk to him, and its only ever for help with something. There was a silence and he opened the door. There stood one Hermione Granger. Soaking from head to toe from the raging storm outside. She sniffed. He just looked at her, and he felt his arm drop from the door knob. She sniffed once more. Severus knew he was being forgiven, but didn't know why.
I'm here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
and tonight girl it's only you and me
